l Name: Type a name of your choosing for the selected Zone.
l Enable Alarm: Enables a zone alarm. Analytic events for the zone will appear in the event stream
when viewing Live View and will trigger Event Handlers if the Analytic Event source is enabled.
l Alarm Severity: Sets the alarm priority as Minor, Normal, Major, or Critical.
l Dwell time: Defines the amount of time that an alarm will remain active when an alarm-triggering
object exits the field of view or the zone. Dwell time can be set between 10 to 300 seconds.
l Object Counting: Determines the number of objects entering into a zone that will trigger an alarm.
l Delay before alarm: Defines the amount of time an object must remain in a zone before triggering an
alarm.
l Direction: Determines the direction of motion a zone should track. Events will be triggered only
when your camera detects motion in the specified direction.
l Sensitivity: Overrides the global Profile sensitivity setting for the selected behavior, defining the
relative amount of motion, between 1 (low) and 10 (high) that will trigger an event or alarm.
Sensitivity is an advanced option for some behaviors.
l Object Speed: Adjusts for speed if the scene is configured to track moving objects at a slower or
faster rate than actual speed. Object Speed defines the relative speed, between 1 (low) and 10
(high), that will trigger an event or alarm.
l Zone Sensitivity: Defines the relative amount of motion within the selected zone that will trigger an
event or alarm. Zone sensitivity can be set at a lower or higher setting than the overall sensitivity
setting for the rest of the scene or the Profile sensitivity setting for the selected behavior.
l Edit Mask: Specifies which areas within the camera view to ignore so that alerts are triggered only if
there is motion in the unmasked part of the video feed.
Using AutoTracker Behavior-Specific Settings
l Name: Type a name of your choosing for the selected Zone.
l Sensitivity: Overrides the global Profile sensitivity setting for the selected behavior, defining the
relative amount of motion, between 1 (low) and 10 (high) that will trigger an event or alarm. Auto sets
the sensitivity level from 1 to 10 automatically according to the amount of motion detected in a
scene. Select Manual to set a user-defined sensitivity level from 1 to 10.
l Dwell time: Defines the amount of time that an alarm will remain active when an alarm-triggering
object exits the field of view or the zone. Dwell time can be set between 10 to 300 seconds.
l Follow Options: Determines whether an object is tracked only within the current field of view or
beyond. Choose Unlimited to continue to follow an object even when it moves beyond the present
field of view. Choose Limit to current view to follow the object only while it is within the present field
of view.
l Camera Placement: Defines the vertical height of the camera’s location relative to the area being
monitored.
l Unit: Defines the unit of measurement as either Meters or Feet.
l Optimize Zoom Settings for Objects of this Type: Defines the type of object to be tracked.
l Average Width: Defines the average width of objects to track.
l Average Height: Defines the average height of objects to track.
Using Drawing Tools
When configuring a zone-based analytic behavior, you can draw zones by selecting one of the zone-
drawing tools and then clicking within the scene to draw the zone. The availability of zone drawing tools is
